I gotta admit I'm getting more and more curious to see what she's gonna do (if anything) in response to Trump. It kind feels like how could you NOT with that moment on that stage with the whole world watching, including him.

I'd love to see something bold from her, but I keep thinking about how disappointed I was when Madonna pulled the American Life video. She didn't want to be the next "Dixie Chicks," and I won't be surprised if Lady Gaga decides she's not interested in being a cultural punching bag right now.

Yeah I've been thinking it would be cool (and understandably safer) if she sends a message via song choices. Like I am pretty sure she will do Come to Mama and Born This Way, maybe even Americano. And a cover of a protest song like People Have the Power would obviously send a strong message.

So excited to see the full performance. I've seen images and some video clips of the rehearsals, and I think we're in for something spectacular.

While I originally wanted a total FUCK TRUMP moment, I don't anymore. It'd be gratifying at a primal level, but ultimately, it's what he would want - the most watched television event of the year to somehow be about him. She said in a press conference that she won't be mentioning him, and that she'll be doing what she's always done, which is promoting unity and equality. So, I think there will be some kind of nod or message, but it won't be Trump's face with a Hitler stache. Nevertheless, I imagine purely by being a visible, liberal artist during this time will incite a backlash from Trump supporters and conservatives. Which... good. Fuck them.

Love this, also love your 'sure, Jan' (Joanne??) avatar. The performance will be spectacular, this is our girl. Just seeing her do 'Born This Way' (surely?) in front of the entire country will be a moment. So proud of her.

Oh man, I think she did such a great job. Really powerful vocals and choreography. Tons of complexity and high high energy and made it look effortless! I think it was smart of her to not go political, and to play up her biggest earworms... I give it a 10/10 really.

I thought she was great and I think her mission was to put on a good show and remind people of the time when everyone loved her and all those great songs, obviously to coincide with the announcement of her tour today.
